  Voting over the internet would require an ID card of some description. All in all not a terrible idea though.
  I think that the best way to get this sort of 'instant' Democracy is to take the narrow winding path, rather than re-engaging with the recent notion of ID cards and getting there lickety-split.
  Probably best to keep the oh-so cumbersome system pro-tem and first engage with the public to think of themselves as an integral part of the Democratic Process.
  The first thing I would do is to introduce a real alternative to the single hymn sheet manifesto the present party system is all too content to deliver.
  For, under our beloved FPTP voting system it is ONLY that one vote more than the other guy gets that matters.
  Going straight to an online voting process requires that all who vote trust the system to tally the votes correctly and trust that any checks be authoritative. A big ask at present.
